Whilst a Chinese territory, Hong Kong is a market where the English language is widely used. In fact it is connected to a more upmarket audience. This is why these ads were executed and aired in English - Panadol Extra Advance is a product at a premium positioning. Also, Hong Kong is a city of long commutes. Time spent in cars or public transport is used for entertainment - radio being a strong player. Understanding this dynamic it made sense to deliver the core message in an entertaining, absorbing way - this is why these ads take the rather unexpected journey they do: it is an audio play, made to draw the audience in, using the power of radio to its best strengths.
